New General Women's Meeting Connects Generations

Women of all ages will strengthen one another as they meet together for the 2014 General Women’s Meeting of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, said Sister Linda K. Burton.

“There is power in gathering,” she said. “We elevate each other in a way when we are together that is absolutely remarkable.”

Sister Burton, Relief Society general president; Sister Bonnie L. Oscarson, Young Women general president; and Sister Rosemary M. Wixom, Primary general president, said they hope the women’s meeting — a historic gathering that is the first of its kind for the LDS Church — will unify Latter-day Saint women across the globe.

The meeting “is about what we feel when we are together,” said Sister Burton. “It is about working together as disciples of Jesus Christ.”
